WEEK 4 UPDATE: [IMPORTANT!]

Hi Everyone!!

Firstly, CONGRATULATIONS to all those who took part in the Inter-tertiary competition on the 15th of May (Saturday) !! Your fellow skaters took part and brought glory to our club by coming in 3rd overall. Our club narrowly lost to SMU and SP, but don't worry, we'll be back next year with a vengeance!

Nevertheless, THREE thumbs up for them! Hip-hip! The names of those who took part will be updated here over the next couple of days. The team, definitely deserves a mention. Good job everyone!!! (:

On a more serious note, please take note of the following as it is very important with regards to this week's training session:


SKATE RENTALS

1. Skate rentals are still ongoing. Last day of rentals will be the 4th session (27th May)

2. Skate rentals have been increased to $5.00. This is in attempt to persuade skaters to purchase their very own pair of skates as it will be a better investment and allow each skater to quickly accustom (season) themselves to their skates before training starts proper next month.

(The additional $2.00 up from $3.00 will go into our club fund for future events & equipment purchases)

3. Skate rentals will now require a deposit of identification cards (eg. IC/EZ-Link Card) along with rental fee. This is due to 4 pairs of skates going missing last week


SKATE PURCHASES/ORDERS

**NOTE: Please be warned that there are illicit dealers around with regards to freestyle skates. The company we are purchasing our skates from, Micro Sports Singapore is the MAIN and ONLY distributor (not retailer) in the whole of Asia-Pacific and Singapore in terms of SEBA skates. Some members who decided not to buy through our school have been sold fake skates or defected ones at prices slashed below what Micro Sports offers, if you find such, please report them back to the club and we will take appropriate action.

1. For skaters who ordered freestyle/recreational skates last week, your skates will be in this week during our training session (20th May)

(If it rains and training is cancelled, you will be able to get your orders @ Ngee Ann Poly Canteen 2 at 6.00pm on the same day)

2. Orders can still be made this week. Hurry and place your orders this week as we are stopping orders soon!

3. For aggressive skates, order taking will end on 27th may. Website to view skate catalog is www.aggressivemall.com.

4. For hockey skates, order taking will end on 27th may. Website to view skate catalog is www.inlinewarehouse.com AND www.hockeymonkey.com

[REGARDING MISSING SKATES]
After session last week, 4 pairs of rentals were not returned. Please kindly return them during the next training session. We will not impose any charge/fine or form of reprimand. We just need to return them to the rental company or the club will have to fork out the $$ to pay for them. If you have any information regarding them as well, please let anyone in the committee know or drop us an e-mail. Thanks guys! (:


OTHERS

NP's TV Crew may be coming down this week to film some of the seniors while skating (& maybe some of you new skaters!). Please don't be alarmed if you see people running around with cameras/microphones & stuff (:


I'll update again if there are changes. That's all folks!

Cheers,
